In this paper, we study the influence of the frequency-dependent connection on the signal transmission in a system of two interacting pulsed neural oscillators. The system is a model of two neurons with synaptic connection having the synaptic-plasticity feature, i.e., synaptic-parameter variation as a function of the frequency characteristics of the signal. It is shown that plastic connection can control the signal-transmission efficiency depending on the pulse-repetition rate and ensures stable synchronization modes of the pulse trains with different ratios between the frequencies of the output and input pulses. Analytical estimates for the parameter ranges corresponding to generation of the pulse response at the detector neuron depending on the pulse-repetition rate at the oscillator neuron were obtained.
